      The latest version of util-linux in testing(buster): v2.31.1-0.4.0nosystemd1 (from v2.30.2-3.0nosystemd1) will REMOVE xserver-xorg-*, udev, control-centre-antix, and tons of other stuff?! This upgrade is also part of a set of upgrades (mount, fdisk, libuuid), etc. Please fix.

      Regards,

      Jim

        I do not see this util-linux breakage on my testing install (yet) so I cannot ‘fix’ it. When/if I see it, then it is a priority to get fixed.

        I do see the new libsystemd0 depends for vlc. I’ll see if I can fix that, but you will have to be patient since vlc is not a standard packages used in antiX default and is therefore low priority.

          I just did a base install with dist-upgrade with no errors (other than the eudev problem, and the networking problem I described Here

            No hurry on either of these minor issues, Anti, just a heads-up!

              I still do not see the same issue.

              Post output of apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade in a terminal.

              Also, add dev to the antiX repo to read

              deb http://repo.antixlinux.com/testing testing main nosystemd dev

              before doing the above.

                I NEVER do apt-get dist-upgrade (dangerous, and I prefer to select updates via Synaptic)! I did add the “dev” as you requested, no change.
                I also tried Angband’s versions (deb http://angband.pl/debian/ nosystemd-buster main) which are the same version numbers and they would update w/o complaint, by temporarily unchecking the Antix repo and checking theirs (BUT I did NOT actually update them whilst I’m working with you to resolve this issue).
                Here’s the other info you requested:

                  If you are running testing, as you are, you really should be using full-upgrade/dist-upgrade.
                  Anyhow, post output of apt-get upgrade

                  I already have latest util-linux on my testing (dist-upgraded) box and a dist-upgrade of a newly installed antiX-17 with testing repos do not show this problem.

                    BTW – do you still have libsystemd0 installed?

                      No, I do not have libsystemd0 currently installed.
                      I’m starting to get suspicious that it may be related to udev/eudev: I’m running udev, libudev, etc. and I see some stuff in the forum a/b eudev/libeudev, have you switched to those now in place of udev and friends? What are the differences?

                        Do the dist-upgrade. That is what using Debian testing is all about.
                        It is almost almost certain that holding vlc to the stretch version will cause issues, if not now, certainly later.
                        Having libsystemd0 on your box (for vlc in testing) is no disaster and IMO better than what you have now.

                        If you don’t want ‘beta’ software, or don’t like dist-upgrade, then you really should not be using Testing.
